Some poetic reflections on the impending power cuts:

A power cut a day keeps industry at bay
A power cut a day means wood sellers make hay
A power cut a day keeps my electronic mistress at bay

Hey, hey,hey - that also rhymes

Sorry, uncle Paul.

No Hay - not a farmer;
I am very industrious, though .....
My wife says I am not allowed to have a mistress ...................

Does it not strike you how little information there is about the REAL reasons for the shortage of power in the region, save the usual litany of excuses?
